Tornado on the sun! A huge storm on the edge of the sun made of plasma caught in magnetic fields.

I got some great footage of a tornado on the sun! Called a tornadic solar prominence it is a huge storm on the edge of the sun made of plasma caught in magnetic fields. Promanices come in many types and subtypes. This one according to my overlay is approximately 6 times the height of the planet Earth! The entire arch is about 123,000 miles wide. This is 2-hours of footage, so think of the speed and energy involved in a storm like this for that much movement in just 2 hours, it boggles my mind.
Imaged with an original "made in the USA" SolarMax 90 single stack Hydrogen Alpha telescope, ASI-174 camera, and a Hutech solar guider to keep the scope pointing at the prominence as the Earth turns.
